Any quick way to tell if I have "Self Leveling Rear Suspension"
 
Hello again!

I have a 1996 850 turbo. Im looking at doing my shocks/struts but now see a little warning on FCP Euro about self leveling shocks in the rear even after selecting my car in their system. Any quick way to tell?

Thanks for everything as always!

Wow, for the third time...

You can look under the car from the rear, if you see large plastic ribbed plastic on the shocks, you likely have Nivomat's. You can also measure the car before you drive, drive at least a mile and measure again. If you raise at least 1 inch, you likely have them.

Walk out behind your car and lay down with a flashlight and look.
